- 作者兼具资深神经学教授与禅修者背景
在这本书中，Zen Buddhism成为对意识展开极其广泛探索的突破口。为了理解大脑产生禅定状态的机制，读者需要对大脑的解剖学、生理学和生物化学有一定认识。Austin既是一位神经学家，又是一位Zen修行者，他将前沿的脑科学研究与个人修行经历巧妙交织。书中的科学论述既包罗万象又严谨求实；关于Zen的篇章则清晰通透且引人入胜。在此过程中，Austin还探讨了其他学科与宗教中的类似状态……

如果你对科学这方面更感兴趣，可能会喜欢 James Austin 写的《Zen and the Brain》（禅与脑）。书有点年头了，但相当有意思。要是想看更现代的冥想分析，“心智与生命研究所”（Mind and Life Institute）资助了大量研究，不过很多都需要通过大学图书馆权限才能看，……

Powerbreathe 感觉就是个迎合西方喜好的无谓单一功能小玩意。James Austin 在《Zen and the Brain》里详细记录了他对禅宗僧侣大脑的研究，早在几十年前就从科学角度揭示了这种呼吸与压力的关联。如果我没记错的话，呼气对于触发……尤为重要。
Powerbreathe seems like an unnecessary uni-tasking gadget conforming to western sensibilities. Zen and the Brain by James Austin details his study of Zen monks brains which revealed this breathing-stress connection scientifically decades ago. If I remember correctly, the exhale is especially important to triggering…
……逻辑清晰，且循序渐进。你可以在这里学习：http://www.audiodharma.org/talks-intromed.html 如果你对三摩地（samadhi）的实证研究感兴趣，James Austin 博士在 MIT 出版社出过一本书，叫《Zen and the Brain: Toward an Understanding of Meditation and Consciousness》。希望这能帮你缓解恐慌，让内心重归清晰与平静。
…logically, and in stepwise progression. You can learn here: http://www.audiodharma.org/talks-intromed.html If you're interested in empirical studies of samadhi, Dr. James Austin published a book called "Zen and the Brain: Toward an Understanding of Meditation and Consciousness" from MIT press. I hope this helps alleviate your panic and brings you clarity and harmony of mind.
……冥想。走到 Borders 书店的相关书架前，看着简直就像一堆老嬉皮士搞出来的新时代伪科学玄学。我平时看到这种一般都是掉头就跑。不过我觉得有本书挺有用，就是 James H. Austin 博士写的、MIT 出版社出的《Zen and the Brain》。Austin 是神经科学荣休教授，从 60 年代末在日本待过一段时间之后就一直在修禅。这本书非常厚重，……
…meditation. Walking up to the relevant shelf at Borders, it can look like a bunch of aging hippies and new age woo. Which is normally a big GET AWAY sign for me. One thing I found useful was the book "Zen and the Brain" by Dr. James H. Austin, published by MIT Press. Austin is an emeritus professor of neuroscience, and has been practicing Zen since he spent some time in Japan in the late 60s. The book is a massive,…
James Austin 写的《Zen and the Brain》（MIT 出版社）也很不错。作者是神经科学荣休教授，60 年代在日本工作时开始接触禅修。这是一本大部头，内容很硬核，大概有 900 页。
Zen and the Brain by James Austin (MIT Press) is also good. The author is an emeritus professor of neuroscience, who started doing Zen during the 60s while he was working in Japan. It's a huge, dense book, about 900 pages.
